FOUND & LOST 20X20

This 20 × 20 inch mixed-media assemblage captures the chaotic, kinetic energy of Miami nightlife through an authentic collection of dance-floor ephemera gathered at Club Space.

Visual Composition & Palette

• Background & Surface: The canvas base is coated in expressive, textured brushstrokes and aerosol overspray, featuring deep charcoal, dusty turquoise, burnt orange, and vivid chartreuse yellow.
• Atmospheric Finish: The embedded objects share a gritty, unified patina—lightly dusted with paint mist, club grime, and layered pigment that blends the three-dimensional relics seamlessly into the painted backdrop.

Assembled Artifacts & Nightlife Ephemera

• Club Essentials & Party Relics:
  • A neon-yellow silicone club wristband near the lower left.
  • Prescription bottles, pill containers, and an empty foil blister pack scattered across the right and center.
  • A crushed metal bottle cap and small containers/caps nestled in the center.
• Tools & Hardware:
  • Small scissors, an Allen key/wrench, and a metal bar affixed directly to the surface.
  • A Sharpie marker and paint tube remnants, signaling the backstage and production side of venue life.
• Tactile & Spherical Elements:
  • A soft, textured cleaning sponge in the lower left corner.
  • A spherical textured ball near the upper left and a translucent dome/cup fixture in the center that catch directional light.
  • Long, thin wire rods running vertically along the right edge, framing the collage.

The finished work functions as a physical time capsule of the legendary venue—transforming everyday dance-floor debris and production items into a textured, neon-dusted snapshot of Club Space history.
